Product Description
Imagine serving guests their own blueberry crisp, piping hot from the oven in this brightly colored Petite Casserole. It's a fun way to present snacks, dips and other single servings that have long baked or just been chilled. In stoneware, it's versatile enough to go right from the fridge to the microwave, and the well-fitted lid retains heat and flavor. Two small side handles make it easy to serve. Fashionable and functional, it also makes a fun gift. Le Creuset stoneware is ideal for microwave or conventional oven, with beautiful colors and textures that make for amazing presentations, whether formal or casual. Nonporous, so it won't stain or absorb odors, and it's exceptionally durable and resistant to scratches, chips and cracks. Can also be stored in the refrigerator or freezer.

Le Creuset adds adorable charm to its time-tested construction with this winning little petite blueberry lidded casserole dish. Crafted from durable stoneware, the round, berry-shaped piece transitions smoothly from the freezer to the oven then makes for fabulous presentation at the table. Petitely-sized for individual portions of blueberry crisp or warm blueberry compote at the breakfast table, the dish holds 13 ounces when filled to the rim. This size also makes it a convenient vessel for serving chilled berry soup portions in summer. For added cheer and appeal, the casserole can be combined with similar Le Creuset casseroles shaped like strawberries, pears, or blackberries. Like Le Creuset's other renowned stoneware pieces, the petite blueberry casserole is fired at a whopping 2000+ degrees and stoutly resists odor-absorption, staining, cracking, chipping, and crazing. Its true-blue enamel glazing is attractively deep in hue at top and bottom while lighter at the rim, and the secure lid features a cute, sculptural blueberry top. Measuring 5 by 5 by 5 inches, the casserole cleans up easily by hand or in the dishwasher and is safe for use in the microwave. --Emily Bedard

Cute as a button, and perfect for what they were INTENDED for October 30, 2007

Just wanted to counter balance the bad review by someone who must not have done the math when they read the product description. And since I found her review on multiple petite casseroles she made the mistake more than once. So, again I am putting in my $0.02.
I love my petite casseroles, I have half a dozen of them. They are perfect for baking individual entrees or desserts for people. Even for making lots of custom hot dips. With these you can cater to what people want in terms of types of fruit or vegetables, how much butter, what kind of sugar or spices. You just can't do that in a large dish.
They hold up to lots of washing and even being dropped without so much as a scratch or any fading. I love my petite casseroles. Just be sure you know what to expect when buying something this size... You can't feed a family from one of these. So don't complain cause even the description of the item says they are perfect for dips for parties, hence the smallness :)
No cast iron in this berry September 24, 2007

I was mostly pleased but a little surprised when my blueberry Le Creuset mini-casserole arrived. It's as cute as a bug, totally adorable -- though I haven't figured out what I'll use it for, I just like it. However, I'd somehow assumed it would have a cast-iron core with the ceramic as an overlay, as the big le Creuset cook-pots have. BAAMP! Nope! If I'd read the description more carefully, I'd have realized this. You can even put this blueberry into the microwave, because there is NO CAST IRON inside. It's too small and funny-shaped to use on the stove, so maybe I should have realized?
I can imagine a kitchen with a row of these crocks lined up on a high shelf or whatever (the punkin, the strawberry, etc. etc.) just for cuteness' sake! So could the designers at Le Creuset, I suppose.
 Great piece, lousy retailer March 8, 2008

The piece is beautiful, great for deserts or other individual servings of dishes. Wonderful if you have vegetarian or vegan friends and you want to make variations of the main dish for them.
This arrived with a chip on one of the leaves. It was a holiday present and I did not inspect it before wrapping. When we discovered that it was damaged, we tried to exchange it. After numerous un-answered voice mail and email messages, we were informed that it was past the 14 day period that they allowed for exchanges.
Lovely piece, but try to find it from someone other than The Kitchen Clique.
 Adorable! October 17, 2007

Wasn't real sure what I would use this tiny little casserole for but I like blueberries and decided to get it to put in my kitchen. I now use it to keep sea salt in. As with all LeCreuset products, it's very well made. I'm very delighted with my purchase! :-)

This is the most adorable little casserole. It's about the size of a large softball. Very blue. It bakes and cleans up well. I've used it to make single servings of many dishes but I love to roast garlic in it. A good price for this line of cookware. I would recommend it for anyone who likes to cook. I'm sure you'll come up with some very creative uses for it too. And it looks great sitting on the counter top!
